1 John 5:14-17
Legacy Standard Bible
14 And this is (A)the confidence which we have [a]before Him, that, (B)if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, (C)we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
16 If anyone sees his brother [b]committing a sin not leading to death, (D)he shall ask and [c]God will for him give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. (E)There is a sin leading to death; (F)I do not say that he should make request for this. 17 (G)All unrighteousness is sin, and (H)there is a sin not leading to death.

Christian Standard Bible
Effective Prayer
14 This is the confidence we have before him: If we ask(A) anything according to his will, he hears us.(B) 15 And if we know that he hears whatever we ask,(C) we know that we have what we have asked of him.(D)
16 If anyone sees a fellow believer[a] committing a sin that doesn’t lead to death, he should ask, and God will give life to him—to those who commit sin that doesn’t lead to death. There is sin[b] that leads to death. I am not saying he should pray about that. 17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin that doesn’t lead to death.
